Gallon and pals: Is there a Google search in their future?

Plainfield schools superintendent Steve Gallon III and his pals Kemp, Borge and Kelly may well wonder if there are Google searches in their future.

Yesterday's Ledger weighed in with an editorial (see here), which with the Courier's earlier editorial (see here) makes him 0-2 in the mainstream media sweepstakes.

As the pressure continues for Gallon to be replaced as schools superintendent -- whether by resignation or removal -- the thought of future prospective employers Googling his name as part of the screening process for a job may give him pause.

Here is what Google turned up today --

• Steve Gallon (see here) 2,700 items
  
• Angela Kemp (see here) 1,010 items
• Lalelei Kelly (see here) 627 items
• Lesly Borge (see here) 682 items

Hindsight being better than foresight, Gallon may now wonder whether it was so wise to get started with this whole 'shell game' (the Ledger's term) from the outset. Too late now.

In the old days, folks used to just pull up stakes and move to another part of the country and reinvent themselves.

Not any more.

Those Google results will be there forever.
